BACKSTAGE AT JEANNE FRIOT SPRING-SUMMER 25 FASHION SHOW
By Chloe Edstein
If their mute images are pinned to mood boards, they go beyond their purely aesthetic function: they are also political and cultural symbols. They speak, they fight. Jeanne was listening to them in the corridors of Duperré, today, the school hosts a show allowing the designer to reintroduce her queer and feminist imagery.
Blondie’s stage attire, which boldly defied the male-dominated punk scene, features striking gold outfits. A vinyl jacket with rounded shoulders channels David Bowie, shattering gender norms. Additionally, a mirrored leather jacket serves as a modern-day armor, paying homage to Joan of Arc and presenting her as a queer icon.
The brand’s designs effortlessly blend with the traditional House styles, like the pleated skirts made of denim this season or the iconic belted dresses featuring printed trompe-l’oeil designs on satin and mesh. The beaded paint combinations for this winter showcase new, lighter shades, while the house’s classic tartan pattern makes a bold return in yellow and blue hues.
The expression of affection towards idols is also a statement of respect for self-development, for those who possess the fortitude to embrace their own identities. To convey this concept, Jeanne Friot has collaborated with the Tinder dating app, which over the past 12 years has humanized the notion of online dating, enabling individuals to both give and receive love.
The Tinder x Jeanne Friot Capsule Collection is available on www.jeannefriot.com for a limited time.
